Everything had been going according to plan for fast-talking New Yorker Zoe Hart (series star RACHEL BILSON). Beautiful, privileged and talented, she was on her way to becoming a heart surgeon, just like her father. But when she's told she doesn't have the requisite bedside manner to get an important fellowship she was counting on getting - that she doesn't have the heart to be a heart surgeon - Zoe's devastated. Desperate, she decides to finally accept the offer of a kindly stranger, Dr. Harley Wilkes (guest star NICHOLAS PRYOR - Beverly Hills, 90210), whom she met at her medical school graduation, and who had proposed she join his small medical practice in Bluebell, Alabama. When Zoe arrives in quaint, picturesque Bluebell, she is instantly befriended by a handsome lawyer - and the town's golden boy - George Tucker (series star SCOTT PORTER). George is excited to discover that Zoe is from New York, where he lived for several years before returning to his hometown.

To get over his writer's block, popular author Nick Garrett goes back to the hometown he wrote about to face the people he has avoided for ten years.

A meek and mousy young woman is found beaten to death on the floor of her apartment. Her brother- in-law is very upset but not about her death--he was paying her money to use her apartment for an extramarital affair.

When a fearless special prosecutor, Clem Rollins (NICHOLAS PRYOR), begins investigating Bartlet's failure to disclose his illness and issues subpoenas to the White House staff, C.J. cunningly reveals clues to the press that could force Rollins to be ousted and replaced by someone more favorable to the administration. Meanwhile, a forest fire rages in Wyoming, but the governor is incensed when Bartlet backs the forestry experts who believe the fire should just burn itself out. The President faces a quandary as he decides whether or not to push for the repeal of the estate tax, mockingly labeled the 'death tax' by his savvy rivals. A wary Donna goes on a blind date with a charming Republican, Cliff Calley (recurring guest star MARK FEUERSTEIN), who might represent a conflict of interest. Also available on iTunes and VUDU
